Dr. Haivry is discussing Zionism and what Zionism means to Israel. Many Japanese people tend to consider Zionism as a radical ideology based on TikTok or X posts which is discussed with no knowledge. Ofir explains how Zionism is applied to the political system and, ultimately, the foundation of Israel.

At the same time, he discusses why Arab nations see Zionism as the enemy ideology. Israel is a nation. Also, October 7th is not like the media in Japan describes. October 7th, to me, was too awful to me, thinking back when American forces had to face in the Middle East during Iraq War. October 7th reminded me of all the evilness that U.S. military faced during Iraq War. The brutal Islamists.

I hope that people understand what Zionism is to Israel and to the people of Israel from historical and philosophical perspective.

A reminder of Podcasts during Hanukkah.

Sadly, the world is deaf to Kurds getting murdered. And, the world is deaf against Antisemitism. I am reminding three podcasts on 26th, 29th, and January 1st, 2025. Please listen to my podcasts on these three days, especially. I forgot to mention but Lindsey Leveen is appearing on my podcast in January 2025. Our schedule didn't match, and we decided to reschedule for the conversation.

If you request a conversation on my podcast Hannah Klein's Time, please feel free to send my website your resume.

Thank you and have a nice Christmas and the first day of Hanukkah.

It was the first time for Japan that a female ICC judge was chosen. Her name is Tomoko Akane. I've been appalled at her typical Japanese-mindedness of "not seeing others's views" or trying to understand other's values. Either of these is causing an enormous amount of issues in the Japanese standpoint in world politics.

Japan is going to be the front-runner in ICC? She discusses the double standard of nations who oppose and "sanction" the ICC. This is something I don't want to discuss, but if this power struggle that Judge Akane is going to initiate over ICC is legitimate, then, Japan has a shadow of history that has been haunting in diplomacy.

In my opinion, this is not just about diplomacy but this is the problem of the Japan being always right, just like the judge Akane, ICC, and the entire ICC.

ICC must be sanctioned.
